Why is my brightness so low? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Honor 8 Pro, Android Oreo, and my maximum brightness is too low. When I move the brightness scroll bar, the brightness is increasing up to 80%. Then when I move the scrollbar from 80% to 100%, the brightness doesn't change. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Turn down the screen brightness level beyond

Is the a way or an app to turn down the brightness level beyond the lowest default. I have used some apps and os setting. What I have noticed is that at f the lowest brightness just before the screen timed out it would dim down a little bit more...i like to get to that level without phone being rooted if I can. Thanks
I use dimmer it lowers it to the possible lowest value of 10 from default lowest 30.
Colorfix from Voodoo team looks like can achieve even further tweaking of the brightness level.
Thanks for the fast reply. I will check out dimmer. When I said "default"...default brightness level the phone were set to initially.
Was trying an APP call Dimmer Lite and it could not retain screen brightness profile with level lower than 10%. Error out saying the OS does not allow it.
Is it true that 2.1 Eclair will not let you turn down screen brightness level below 10% ?

How to increase screen brightness at 10% battery

When my battery level reaches 10% the screen brightness is reduced to virtually nothing, I can barely see the screen in sunlight. Playing around in the display or power options doesn't change the brightness level. How to I disable this function so that I can manage the brightness myself? Thanks!

Increase the brightness in battery saving mode. Your battery saving mode is set to start at 10 % battery and probably reduces your brightness close to 0. Either increase the brightness or just shut down battery saving mode completely and use the brightness settings you want.
Thanks, but the thing is that power saving mode was not enabled (never used it) before I reached <10% battery. I enabled it then thinking it was the cause of the low screen brightness, but even with it and setting the power saving brightness to 30% the screen still stayed very dark.
Any idea what else it could be. I've only once had it at <10% but if it happens again I'd like to be able to use the phone according to my settings.

[Q] Auto-brightness vs Lowest brightness

Hi! My question is: Is there a BIG difference between leaving lowest brightness setting and auto-brightness? If so, how much? (Hours, battery usage, etc)
Thanks! I hope this thread will be informative for everyone..
Auto-brightness consumes more battery because it is constantly changing brightness, if you want the best battery power just use the lowest brightness
as aaitken said auto brightness consumes more battery . its better to use low brightness and use a brightness control widget from market and change the brightness manually when required

If you have a stock firmware, or a stock based ROM, you can adjust brightness anywhere you can access the notification bar. This is built into TouchWiz. Just hold your finger on the notification bar until you see the pull-down shade, and slide your finger left or right to adjust brightness.
I leave my brightness on lowest and adjust as necessary with this, i.e. when I'm in a bright setting, and need to turn my brightness up.
Also there is brightness options in AOKP with the toggles and in CM9 (and most other AOSP roms) as a power save widget bala_gamer's option's also a good way
Thank you very much for your helpful answers..

Reduce brightness level

Hey guys so problem is my screen flickers a bit when I turn the brightness to max. So is there anyway to set the maximum brightness level through build.prop or somewhere else so that when I move the brightness slider it shouldn't go too high.

Question Limit maximum brightness without disabling adaptive brightness

As per the title, is it possible to stop the screen brightness going into 'boost' mode when outside, whilst keeping autobrightness on? Often when it's not that bright outside, the screen defaults to maximum brightness which washes it out and wastes battery
This is typically only possible with a custom kernel.
